- LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York State. I have more than 23 years of experience working in mental health. Most of my experience has been working with children/youth; however, in the last 9 years I have been working with adults and in the last year I have been working with couples. I received my master degree in Social Work from New York University (NYU), and a bachelor in Psychology from College of Mount Saint Viencent. I started to work in the mental health fields before I obtain both of these degrees. I started to work in this field in 1995, as a member of the Children Mobile Mental Health Crisis Team. I have been working in these field and community based programs in New York since then and for more than half of my life. I particularly work with family with children/young adult that are consider to be severe emotionally disturbed and are at risk of out of home placements due to their mental health illness, trauma, childhood diagnosis such as ADHD and others, Depression, Anxiety, Self-Esteem issues, and others such as Anger and Emotional Control. My treatment approach has been to meet the client where they are at, build on their strengths, explore, identify and resolved their barriers while building a therapeutic relationship and using an eclectic theoretical approach based on the their needs and styles. In my 20 + years of experience, I have and continues to participate in a series of therapeutic training techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma Focus – Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT, Solution Focused, others modalities to treat trauma other than TF-CBT, Grief therapy, etc. In my professional life, my greater accomplishment has been to see my clients of all ages to buiild on their strengthen, eliminate barriers or identify them so that at the first sign of it they can eliminate it. Them taking control of their emotions and liberated themself from a debilitated illness and or situation that has taken over their life and make their own life choices.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions. Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Without Ivelisse’ wisdom, I’m not sure I could have navigated this time of illness. ❤️
Ivelisse is kind and present and challenges me to help shift my perspective in situations. She has added so much value to my life in such a short amount of time. She really listens and often references previous sessions to tie everything all together.
She has been such a vital support system for me to gain confidence in myself. She understands my concerns, discerns what I need and guides me by telling me what I need to hear. Thank you for being not only a cheerleader, but a core to my self growth.
